What’s the one thing you don’t plan on ruining your round of golf? I’m standing on Samuell Boulevard right now, unable to check in at the Tenison pro shop because there is a guy with a gun loose on the golf course. The whole place is shut down. Helicopter hovering o’er head. And I just talked to an actual cop to confirm it. That’s what you call old-school shoe-leather reportage.
Says Golfer Eric: “How much to go sprinting across the course right now?”
UPDATE: (7:10) The manhunt has been called off. They didn’t find the guy. Could be an interesting round.
UPDATE: (12:15) Turns out it was an interesting round. Not only did two of our foursome have to remove their drawers during the round but Eric Celeste actually beat Adam McGill and me for the first time ever. We are through the looking glass.

If you see any coyotes, look for a guy with a pistol in his shorts close by.
Was that a gun or was he just happy to be the first one on the course today?
Still another reason to go to Grover Keeton.
Allow me to blogjack. I just watched Sarah Eveans’ weekend picks. Content and delivery were fine, but camera work was sketchy. Did the camera operator discover the zoom-in, zoom out feature? Shaky cam is so 1997.
Hector, what you do when you look at Sarah Eveans’ pics is your own business. You scarcely need our permission.
This is NOT the first time I have heard of people getting robbed by gunpoint at Tennison (insert “shootgun start” joke here). What the heck is going on with this world? Do the cart girls and marshalls need to carry guns now? (strike that – there are no marshalls at Tennison ergo the 6 hour round).
